| Teenage Cancer Trust in the East Riding |
The story of how MsMM started and how TCT fundraising has developed in the area (Updated 20/01/2012 by Sheila Brazier)
It seems a long time since June 2002 when we had our first gig in the garden, hoping our friends would enjoy our acoustic music concert, and raising “a bit” of money for the Teenage Cancer Trust (TCT). We named this “Midsummer Music Madness” because it was summer and it was definitely madness to plan a back garden event in view of England’s fickle weather! Please see our website www.msmm.co.uk to see where this has led.

Although our plans to have a second concert the next year were curtailed because of a local objection, this proved to be the catalyst for our event to be moved to Brantingham Park, the home of our local Rugby Union club Hull Ionians – thus leading to Rugby Tackling Teenage Cancer. more...

| Blanket for auction |
Steve Oliver, our friend from Castle Hill kindly agreed to hold the blanket made from squares knitted by tax inspectors from Cherry Court, Hull.

The idea for the squares started during a Learning at Work demonstration by Sheila and Elaine, earlier this year.
Learning at Work is an initiative by Unions to encourage staff to learn a new skill. Elaine had the idea of knitting squares towards blankets to be sold/auctioned for charity. She could not have imagined how her idea would grow as colleagues started to produce squares.
This is the third blanket which has been completed, each containing more than 142000 stitches!
Staff at Cherry Court have been enthusiastic supporters of the Teenage Cancer Trust for many years and look forward to their blanket being auctioned for the charity at a forthcoming event.

| Rugby Tackling Teenage Cancer (RTTC) |
On 13th January 2008 Rugby Tackling Teenage Cancer was launched in some style at the KC Stadium.

RTTC evolved from MsMM's enforced move from the back garden to Brantingham Park, the home of our local Rugby Union club, Hull Ionians.
Quite simply it is the idea of replicating what we are doing locally with MsMM around the country via other rugby grounds.
Please visit our sister site www.rugbyttc.org for more information....

| Our Artists |
Well they are not really 'ours' but the bands and singers have been good enough to come along to HAM evenings to entertain us, or have supported us at MsMM concerts.
So, as a thank you, we thought we would give them a bit of extra space on our web site. We hope you like the new pages for our fantastic artists.
